Rolf Saager is an Associate Professor at Linköping University, primarily focusing on developing methods and instrumentation to advance spectroscopy and light transport modeling for imaging tissue. His research centers on creating non-invasive tools for the clinical detection and monitoring of treatment for skin diseases and injuries. Dr. Saager's work involves quantitative biomedical imaging spectroscopy in the fields of dermatology and wound healing, particularly through technology development that emphasizes the evaluation of lab advancements in spectroscopic methods. This includes exploiting molecular sensitivity and non-invasiveness in spectroscopic practices, extending spatial resolution and depth selectivity using recent advances in imaging technology. His work encompasses novel computational methods and models of light transport that translate these technologies into clinical settings. The primary thrust of his research includes applications in collaborations that aim to address unmet needs in dermatological models of disease, particularly in pre-clinical settings involving small animals. His platform also provides opportunities to monitor structural changes in tissue response to therapy during wound healing, indicating distinct phases of wound healing that can be identified and monitored longitudinally through quantitative optical methods.
